A collection of stored operational data used by the application system of some particular enterprise A shared collection of logically related data (and a description of this data) designed to meet the information needs of an organization A collection of stored data organized in such a way that all user requirements are satisfied by the database. In general there is only one copy of each item of data although there may be controlled repetition of some data. All of the above Data inconsistency leads to a number of problems such as loss of information and incorrect results less secure data redundant data Slow database development Which of the following constraints enforces entity integrity?

Which of the following is INCORRECT statement concerning the database design process? During requirements collection and analysis phase, one can gather the data requirements of database users. By referring to a high level data model, it is possible to understand the data requirements of the users, entity types, relationships and constraints. Transformation of the high level data model into the implementation data model is called logical design or data model mapping. During the logical design phase of internal storage structures, access paths and file organization for the database files are specified.
